Coming from the side of his aspect, I was the same way throughout high school. It wasn't until years after I was out, that I started actually gaining weight, mainly because I wasn't as active. As long as he's being healthy, then things will happen in time. I can't think of too many 30-something guys that are that skinny.…

I've met a few in random ways. My last relationship, I met her playing World of Warcraft. Lasted about 5 years or so, had some ups and downs though, lots of drama from outside influences, which ultimately led to it just not working. There was a distance thing, but nothing I wasn't willing to try to overcome. It's a long…

I normally do mine as I eat, or shortly after. Then again, I usually check this site throughout the day, or the app, so I tend to know what my calories left look like, so I can adjust as I make the meal, and then update after I eat.

Just did day 2 myself today, but I can always redo it and extend it a day if you're interested in keeping the days together :)

I don't have any set motivational songs. I just throw on a channel on Pandora (Godsmack channel, usually, just because it's a decent enough mix of hard-enough, but upbeat to go with). I just need something running through my ears to distract me in the slightest so I lose track of a few seconds here and there and go longer.

I found that it tends to take two to accomplish it well, and...well, I don't have anyone who's game lol. I haven't yet made a false persona to make myself feel like I have a life, but I'm probably a few half-steps shy of it.

When I had mine done, I ended up with things like noodles, jellos, smoothies, mashed potatoes, and eventually was able to add scrambled eggs to the mix. Took a while before it could get more solid for me, but just do what you can tolerate, and you'll make it :)

For me, it was when I saw the picture of my face on my badge for work last year. Initially, I said "wow, my face is kinda chubby", and dismissed it. But it kept eating at me over time. Plus, I hit the magical 200+ number which I had never seen on scale I had stepped on. And then someone special is supposed to be home tail…

Happily!

Welcoming :)

If I can get 10 more by then, that'd be plenty for me. My main goal is just to get more in-shape with the weight I've gotten to, just trying to build up my cardio and stuff more. Hell, if I can do 30 push-ups in a row by christmas, it'll be it's own miracle lol (mainly because of my own laziness)

I'm more in the South Central part of the state, so on a technicality... lol

Restarting it tomorrow for me, now that I THINK I'm distraction-free lol. I'll take a picture before I start, and then I'll keep checking throughout.

That's an awesome story! Very inspiring that you've helped shape a pair of lives by your generosity and kindness, and to have them reach out to thank you after all this time, is just great! Kudos to you, by far!

Thinking why aren't we in the pool!

Forsaken, by Michele McLaughlin. Pandora at work ftw.

I wasn't. Unless you count being outcast from day 1, and trying to fit in anywhere and not succeeding. I had started Kindergarten at a different school, and when I transferred when we moved, turns out what I had learned was a lot of what was covered in 1st grade in the new one, so they bumped me up to 2nd. So not only did…

I'm thinking about putting the DVDs back on myself. I never got more than a couple weeks in and then always would have something come up that would put it on hold. But with the colder weather and not being able to get outside as much, I gotta do something to keep up. Maybe I'll toss in the fit test tonight when I get home.

Ironically, after having lost weight over the last few months...I'll be an Elephant. Go figure. Silly work functions anyway!

I'm not really a morning person, more like about a 10AM person. But given that I usually don't get up until around 9 or so... I usually go first, come home, then have a couple eggs or something afterwards. For me, just seems to work well. I guess I figure I might feel more full to do anything if I eat first? I'm sure it's…

Of course :)

Welcome! Hopefully we can be your motivation through encouragement! Gonna be tough with all that amazing food to tempt you, but you can do it!

Gave up most soda (used to drink a lot of Mt Dew), cut that back to one a week or so. That, and most fast-food. I think I've had it maybe twice in the last month? If even that much. It's not that I couldn't probably still eat it and be ok in moderation. But I can honestly say my body feels better without all that stuff in…

None, but she might need a few to look my way lol

Nope :)

Would have to agree with the aforementioned family members. :)

Wave and shake hands as well (cause I'm an unknown still :P )

Open on my end as well, new friends welcome! :)

I think you just need to get some friends added on here, so you can see their activities too! I know it sounds silly, but just seeing other people do things on the feed can be a good source of motivation to do the same. I find myself coming on and going "man, she did 45 mins on the bike today? I better get moving!". I know…
